I think we need new ways of describing the clusterfuck that is the Trump White-house, 'in chaos' just doesn't seem to cut it any more, after all its been in chaos from day one, yet once more he's considering a shake up, and his internet bride apparently fired a security adviser, then she didn't, Mira Ricardel was reportedly escorted out yesterday, but is back at work today, Kelly is one again for the chop, or maybe not who can say. All the best people and all that.... time.com/5453979/trump-staff-shakeup-cabinet-white-house/

I'm starting to wonder if Michelle Obama might make a run for the Oval Office.

Michelle may do well in primary, there will be many there, if she can get 15% of the vote she may well win the early primaries, it could happen

I would be very surprised if Michelle ran. Just canât see her wanting that.
By the way, something very strange is going on. Fox news has gone radio silent on Twitter for about two days now. Murdoch has been seen in the White House. And today after the news that CNN is suing the Trump Admin over yanking Acostaâs access, Fox news put out a statement supporting the lawsuit.
Of course this doesnât mean theyâre coming to their senses. More likely the rats are beginning to jump the sinking ship.

Several news shows have mentioned this. They are more of the idea that what goes around comes around. I tend to agree, Trump and his cult will not be in the WH for ever.
Obama blocked/ignored Fox and was rightly called out for it. You may not like them but they were an accredited news agency. I say were, now they just seem to exist to lick #45's ball sack.

it is true that Trump will not be around for ever, I do think he is likely to win the next term though,, his numbers are above Obama's at this time, economy is still doing great, other then inside government stuff everything is doing great, and nobody really cares about inside government stuff,

It was probably more the fact the ceremony did not plan to make him the center of attention.
Nice to see you still trucking along OH.

yuge win today, Acosta gets his credentials back as court slaps Trump down following his tantrum about not wanting to face actual media questions. Though I doubt Sanders helped by tweeting out faked videos of the incident. www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-46240975

So it turns out our acting Attorney General worked for a company that scammed vets out of their money and was on the board for another one that - well here you go: Whitaker was named to the advisory board of World Patent Marketing in Nov. 2014, the same month the Miami Beach-based firm announced the launch of an extra-deep toilet designed to help "well-endowed men" go to the bathroom without their genitalia making contact with the porcelain or water.
"The average male genitalia is between 5 inches and 6 inches," the invention-marketing company said. "However, this invention is designed for those of us who measure longer than that."
Whitaker appeared in some promotional videos for World Patent Marketing, including for a hot tub product, but also used his name as a former U.S. Attorney and Republican candidate for United States Senate to bolster the company's stranger items. World Patent Marketing also said "time travel" could be "possible, perhaps within the next decade" to raise money for a "theoretical time travel commodity tied directly to price of Bitcoin." Time Travel X was branded as "an investment vehicle" that could help users "relive moments from your past" or "visit your future."
The Washington Post reports World Patent Marketing was forced to shut down in May, agreeing to pay a settlement of nearly $26 million to resolve wide-ranging Federal Trade Commission complaints about defrauding investors."Only the best people" turns out to be "those that suck up to me the most. www.syracuse.com/us-news/index.ssf/2018/11/matt_whitaker_bigfoot_toilet_time_travel.htmlwww.washingtonpost.com/opinions/matthew-whitaker-is-steeped-in-time-travel-and-bigfoot-hes-the-right-man-for-the-job/2018/11/13/2ed59fc8-e785-11e8-b8dc-66cca409c180_story.html?utm_term=.758d65217b32

Have you seen the clips of his time as a TV salesperson?
not long till the next Saturday Night Massacre, though I doubt there is a rep who has any moral principles so I doubt anyone will resist Trumps attack on the Justice Department.

No, haven't seen that.
There are some reps that won't roll over for him. The Dems getting control of the House must be Trump's biggest nightmare come true. And Trump being the complete sh*t-for-brains that he is, implied that the reason he chose Whitaker was to impede the investigation by Mueller. He's done that Twice now.
And it's been reported that Mueller has quite a few more indictments ready to unseal at some point. Tick tock, mutherfucker.

More hilarity from Mr Bullshit. Finns have been baffled by US President Donald Trump's comments praising the country for managing its vast forests by raking. Citing a conversation with his Finnish counterpart, Mr Trump said they spend "a lot of time on raking and cleaning". But President Sauli Niinisto told a Finnish daily he could not remember talking about raking when the two met. www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-46256296Not that Trumps target audience will ever hear about this latest bullshitery, and lets face it they probably have no idea where Finland is or that's its even a place.

Good article here (written by a Republican who refused to drink the kool-aid). For two years, Donald Trump had fun amidst the mess. He reveled in stage-managing a reality-television version of an executive branch staffed by weak-willed and morally vacant appointees selected more for their ass-kissing skills than for any remote talent in governing or even any talent at all. He consumed every ounce of scenery, and his every desire, whim, and impulse were carried out by White House minions unable to say no. Republican Members of Congress may as well have sported âProperty of Donald Trumpâ forehead tattoos.
During those halcyon days, the power of the Republican House was used to obstruct justice, block the Mueller probe into Russiaâs pro-Trump efforts, and to attack the intelligence community in order to protect Team Putin. They were a blocking force against investigations into his taxes, finances, and his administration's misdeeds. Trump has never displayed even the most cursory interest in governing or leadership, but he loves the roar of the crowd, the high-fructose smell of the MAGA set jammed into arenas, his long-running pissing match with the media, and trolling the known universe on Twitter. A supine House was his shield.
Donald Trump, a princeling who was raised in luxury, never held accountable for any of his countless personal and business betrayals and failures, and who literally lived in a golden tower for most of his life, is not good with stress. His rage-tweeting shows us that he knows he canât juggle all the crises steaming toward him, that he knows his astounding power to distort reality for his followers wonât shield him from the political, legal, and personal perils closing in on him.
Playtime is over, and Donald doesn't like it.www.thedailybeast.com/sensing-defeat-trump-cries-witch-hunt?ref=wrap

Did you see the latest Manifort 'pants on fire' thing yesterday, this lot just can;t stop lying ffs, my bet is Trump has told him if he keeps his mouth shut or tries to throw Mueler off Trump will pardon him.
Also apparently he met with the Aussie sex pest and Putin useful idiot, Asange a couple of days before taking over running the campaign in Asange's broom closet at the Ecuadorian embassy. The more that comes out the more shabby it all looks.
Interesting since the fraudster Trump put in as AG, no new indictments have been issued.

Yeah I saw that, it just makes it harder for Trump to pardon him now.
Mueller is not a guy you want to f**k around with.

Here's a thing, I think.
People are just bored of Trump now. And as a result, he's seeming small and insignificant. A year ago, he'd threaten something outrageous like shooting immigrants at the border, and everyone would go wild. Now, he's basically maxed out. There's nowhere else for him to go to goad his horrible horde of idiots. The public care about each thing, but no extra thing seems like much compared to what's gone before. He's become a bit irrelevant, and he's thrashing more and more angrily as a result. He doesn't have any mode other than as racist outrage merchant, and that means he doesn't really know what to do.
